Marcel Reed, a Texas A&M star quarterback, is among the highest-paid players in college football, according to On3 insider Pete Nakos. Reed's contract for the 2026 season is valued at $3 million. Reed, who entered his second full starting season in 2025, threw for 3,169 yards, 25 touchdowns, and 12 interceptions during that campaign.
His dual-threat skill set and elite speed have often posed challenges for opposing defensive coordinators. Reed and Texas A&M have reportedly negotiated a deal to keep him in College Station, as confirmed by sources familiar with the situation. Reed's performance at Texas A&M has been crucial in their pursuit of consecutive 10-win seasons for the first time in over 30 years.
Current Miami QB Darien Mensah reportedly makes over $6 million, making him the highest-paid quarterback among college football players.
